Syria is not a great 'debacle'

Some people are never satisfied. Consider the decision about whether to bomb Syria. Every poll of the American people found that a majority were against bombing Syria.

Some Republicans and Fox News broadcasting pundits don't agree with the majority. Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain are outraged that we are "resorting" to trying diplomacy first. Graham calls this a "debacle." A journalist went so far as to say that he has "never seen a fiasco like this from an American president."

Really? How about almost 4,500 troops killed, 32,000 wounded and $814 trillion spent on a war based on cooked intelligence? Remember the yellow-cake "vast quantities" quote?

Or how about a mushroom cloud? Sen. Graham, that would be a debacle.
